RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LABOUR PRODUCTIVITY AND ITS REMUNERATION IN AGRICULTURE IN COMPARISON WITH NATIONAL ECONOMY AND ITS SECTORS IN POLAND IN THE PERIOD 2005 - 2012

Summary/Abstract: The Author discusses the relationship between the productivity of the labourfactor and its remuneration. The analysis is focused on a comparison of agriculture to thenational economy and its selected sectors. Both static and dynamic approaches are applied.The relationship between the productivity of the labour factor and its remuneration givesinformation whether the remuneration results from the productivity. Producer’s equilibrium, zero profit conditions and the problem of the allocation anddistribution in the sectoral perspective are the theoretical basis for such an analysis. It isdemonstrated whether (and to what extent) labour productivity is the source of fundingremuneration in a given sector. Secondly, the analysis allows to assess rationality of theallocation of the labour factor and distribution of value added among sectors. The resultscan indicate i.a. whether agriculture benefits or loses from such a distribution. The analysisconsists of two parts. In the first step the Author derives analytical formulas similar to theidea of the unit labour costs and presents theoretical proof. In the second step, empiricalstudy is conducted based mainly on the graphical illustration.
